You have a HYROX race in 3-12 months
The plan generator works best when there's a target. Race date sets the periodization: build base, lift threshold, sharpen specifics, taper. Without a date, every plan looks the same. If you don't have a race booked yet, book one before subscribing.
You've done at least one HYROX race
You've felt the stations under fatigue. You know where you bled time. You've seen what happens to your running after the sled. That experience makes the limiter diagnosis sharp, you can validate it against your race memory. Total HYROX beginners need a different starting point.
You've plateaued on a generic program
Five-day splits, CrossFit-adjacent programming, "fitness influencer" weekly templates, they got you off the ground and now they're not moving you. The reason is usually that they're training general fitness instead of the specific station + run pattern that makes up your race. LimiterIQ trains the limiter that's costing you the most time, not whichever station is fashionable that week.
You want a program that adapts to your real data
Most paid programs are static PDFs. You miss a Wednesday, too bad, no adjustment. You log a pain flag, no acknowledgement. LimiterIQ regenerates weekly based on what you actually did and what you reported. The honest check-in is the input that makes the plan responsive.
You have 4-6 hours per week to train
The plan is structured around 4 sessions per week (hard Mon/Wed/Fri + support Tue/Thu) plus a Saturday long run anchor. If you have less time, the volume preference can drop to 3 sessions. More than 6 hours is fine but rarely needed, the limiter focus means the work is denser, not longer.
You're willing to log honestly
The product is the data flywheel. Honest RPE, honest pain flags, honest missed-session reasons, these feed plan generation. If you log a session as "RPE 7" when it was actually "RPE 9.5, I cratered," the next week's plan will be miscalibrated. Members who log honestly see the plan adapt. Members who don't, get a static plan.
